Drinking Liberally - Milwaukee style

I second Stacie's motion to get a Milwaukee chapter of Drinking Liberally going.

You may be asking what this group is all about. It's really not complicated at all as the organization's site explains:

"An informal, inclusive Democratic drinking club. Raise your spirits while you raise your glass, and share ideas while you share a pitcher. Drinking Liberally gives like-minded, left-leaning individuals a place to talk politics. You don't need to be a policy expert and this isn't a book club - just come and learn from peers, trade jokes, vent frustration and hang out in an environment where it's not taboo to talk politics."

There are 91 chapters to date, and Madison, Minneapolis, and Chicago are already there.

I'm all for it! I've wondered why Milwaukee of all places doesn't have a Drinking Liberally chapter. East side is (obviously) best for me...

Yeah I think it's overdue as well. There's a comment thread at VSDC talking about possible locations if people want to add their 2 cents.

Sigh. Milwaukee's too far for me.

I suppose it'll be a cold day in hell before there's a Drinking Liberally chapter in the Fox Cities.

You never know. There are Democrats everywhere, although probably not in the percentage you would prefer up there in the valley. ;)
